Polyethylene glycols (PEGs) in general use are polydisperse molecules with molecular weight (MW) distributed around an average Dryer Foot Pad value applied in their designation e.g., PEG 4000.Previous research has shown that PEGs can act as P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitors with the potential to affect the absorption and efflux of concomitantly admi
We report a self-phase-locked and Bottle Stoppers degenerate backward wave optical parametric oscillator (BWOPO) generating a counterpropagating signal and an idler in the spectral band of optical communication.The device is based on a periodically poled Rb-doped KTiOPO4 crystal with a poling period of 433 nm.To the best of our knowledge, this is t
S-type asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars are defined by their Mirror carbon-to-oxygen (C/O) ratio approaching unity.However, observations of circumstellar molecules in these stars are limited and challenging.In this study, we used the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope to search for cyanide (CN) in 12 selected S-type AGB stars, with only 4 of these st
Technology has been viewed as a means to improve the quality of education for children globally, particularly in remote and marginal communities.This study examines the comparative advantages of the use of appropriate technology (off-line servers with digital libraries connected to a classroom set of laptops) in ten intervention schools in Indigeno
